Social Ties and Health: Insights from a Broad Perspective on Relationship Positivity and Negativity
BIO
Bert Uchino’s program of research has been aimed at examining how social relationships influence health at multiple levels of analysis. They have been examining the social (e.g., types of social interactions), cognitive (e.g., how these interactions are interpreted or construed), and physiological (e.g., cardiovascular, endocrine, and immune) processes associated with our all important social relationships.

Annually the Department of Psychology hosts a Colloquia Series throughout the academic year. This exciting program brings us together outside of the classroom to have conversations with the speakers we’ve invited to our campus to share their ideas. You’ll have the chance to hear from international speakers on a wide range of provocative topics.
